Stellaris Robotic Evaluation Board

This cost-effective bundle combines the Stellaris Robotic Evaluation Board with the Micrium µC/OS-III: The Real-Time Kernel book by Jean J. Labrosse. The book puts the spotlight on how a real-time kernel works by using Micrium’s µC/OS-III as a descriptive reference in part one, and then putting the concepts into practice with example projects that use the richly-featured and just plain fun Texas Instruments EVM-EVALBOT robotic evaluation board.
